A recent study has dug up evidence of a new phylum of microbes - called CSP1-3 - in a part of Earth referred to as the critical zone. This layer of the planet is where air, water, soil ...

But in ACS ES&T Water, researchers now report that these fixtures are no "silver bullet." In real-world showering conditions, most microbes aren't exposed to the silver long enough to be killed.

Using bacteria to treat groundwater is cost effective because the microorganisms destroy pollutants before the water reaches wells. The process involves injecting the groundwater with the ...

Scientists in the US have discovered a newly identified phylum of microbes thriving up to 70 ... clues for filtering pollutants from drinking water. The study, led by James Tiedje, PhD, a ...
